Creative Nail Design: Color & Effects

When a model steps out on to the runway, you can be sure that her look has been styled right down to the last detail. Creative Nail Designs have worked as the backstage nail team for some of the world’s top designers and it is their job to make sure that the model’s nails are perfect. This fall, the color pink is a huge trend so when we were offered the chance to try the new CND Color & Effects range, we immediately opted for a bright pink.

The CND Color & Effects range was designed to be layered and customized. On the color side, there is a full spectrum palette of 50 new crème colors, including neutrals (such as Studio White and Blackjack), bright pinks (our choice, Raspberry Parfait), primary and secondary colors (Bicycle Yellow and Eclectic Purple stand out) and another huge trend for fall, metallics (Gold, Copper and Silver Chrome).

On the Effects side, the colors are complemented by 15 Effects in three categories – Pearl, Shimmer and Sparkle. The effects can actually be layered over or under the crème polish so this range is perfect for some fun experimentation. Our choice was Sapphire Sparkle which provided a nice contrast against the Raspberry Parfait, giving it a purple glow under certain light.

CND’s Color & Effects range has just come onto the market and is available at BeBeautiful.com (Color $9, Effects $11) or GoIndulge.com (Color $9, Effects $9).
